Armed with a $35,000 (AUD) budget, Kelli and Gerard set about finding themselves a venue to host their day. They settled on Gum Gully Farm, situated in the beautiful foothills of the Dandenong Ranges near Melbourne, a rustic and intimate space that felt just perfect for them as it was laid back and easygoing. It also had the perk that they were able to bring in their alcohol for the staff to serve, which helped to keep costs down.

Friday 13th Galaxy Themed Backyard Wedding

Sophie Cooke

Tommie Marshell

October 30, 2018

Amy and Emil tore up the wedding rule-book from the very beginning of their wedding planning; they held their big day in the bride's parents' backyard and kept it small and intimate. They didn’t have a bridal party, instead wanting all their guests to sit back and enjoy the ceremony together. They even got married on Friday 13th - unlucky for some, but as the couple started dating on a Friday 13th and got engaged the same date a few years later, it only made sense for them to continue their lucky streak!

Ali and Gem are both into the arts, so having their wedding at the groom's place of work, The Royal Shakespeare Theatre was the perfect choice! They wanted a wedding that reflected both of them and avoided tradition and trends at all costs! The groom actually sent me the most amazing email while they were planning their wedding (which I couldn't help but share!) so it really is a thrill to see how their wedding turned out!

Married at Brooklyn Winery in New York, Lindsay and Jesse's wedding was fun, colourful and a perfect reflection of them. It wasn't all smooth sailing, but you'd never know that to look at these beautiful pictures. The bride wore a striped dress by Hayley Paige and many pairs of custom glasses! They had paper flowers instead of real ones and a Rice Krispy cake in lieu of anything traditional.

Lord of the Rings, Comic Books, and the Groom Dressed as a Power Ranger: Felicia & Joe

Well this is certainly something you don't see everyday! I have a funny feeling you're going to love this. Felicia and Joe were hitched at the historic Warner Theatre in Washington DC. The bride wore a Vera Wang gown from her diffusion line at David's Bridal, but she had to compete with that groom of hers who rocked up dressed as his favourite Power Ranger! Who says brides get to have all the fun?

Are Brides Who Wear Glasses Any Less Beautiful?

Watch any teen movie from the past ten years and you'll recognise this cliché. In order to get the guy, the heroine, who starts off an ugly duckling, first needs to be transformed into a beautiful swan. Whatever the premise of the film might be, the classic movie makeover formula is tried, tested and invariable. Her hair is tamed, 'sexy' clothes are donned, make up applied, glasses removed... How exactly she's going to see the man of her dreams without that vital accessory never seems to be a concern.
